Clock speeds aside, what makes this card unique is its cooling
solution. Instead of the reference air cooler that is so noisy noisy that I keep a
set of ear plugs in my desk drawer, Sapphire has chosen to use a self-contained liquid cooling kit. As you can see, the actual cooler and the card are separate units, so it will require a spare expansion slot to accommodate this. The main graphics card has nothing but a waterblock on it, while the cooling unit contains the reservoir, pump, copper radiator and cooling fan. It is pre-filled, so you're ready to go straight out of the box. But if you need to top up the coolant or even replace it this is easily done.
